Vintage Beaded Violets in Footed Egg Vase
Sewing
Big Foot Cat's Collectibles 
$65.00 includes shipping
This 4 " tri-footed egg shaped vase is filled with beaded violets. These violets are made of tiny glass beads. These were carefully strung on wires, then the wires were twisted and bent into shapes to make leaves and flowers. The egg shaped vase is a bluish opalescent color with hand painted violets with gold accents and trim. This hand made treasure was made in 1970 by a dear lady in Brooklyn and given to my Mom.
